| r4___ | yeah same | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| r4___ | especially given that the problem is fixed once i reinstall grub | 00:00 |
| twb | Because I have *so* many problems with grub, and my booting needs are simple and homogeneous, I usually just install extlinux instead in such cases. | 00:00 |
| twb | Here are my notes http://paste.debian.net/123429/ (for hardy, but largely unchanged as at lucid) | 00:01 |
| r4___ | hrm | 00:03 |
| r4___ | ill have to give that a good read tomorrow | 00:03 |
| r4___ | cuz this solution will only be acceptable as a temp fix | 00:03 |
| twb | Shrug. | 00:09 |
| r4___ | ill just have to play around and see if i can find a fix :) | 00:10 |
| twb | When I put extlinux in production, it just sits there and works. Such is definitely not my experience with grub, especially grub 2. As you've seen... | 00:10 |
| r4___ | haha yeah | 00:10 |
| r4___ | ill give extlinux a look...it might get rid of this damn headache... :P | 00:10 |

| Totem-Schalter | anyone know anything about setting up a tftpd server .. im having a hell of a time trying to get it to work. | 08:09 |
| codec_ | jep. whats the problem? | 08:10 |
| Totem-Schalter | im using tftpd-hpa and its running but i cant access it | 08:11 |
| Totem-Schalter | i get the error "no file or dir" | 08:11 |
| Totem-Schalter | i made a folder in "/tftp" and chmod 777 it and i also edited the tftpd-hpa to reflect that dir | 08:13 |
| Totem-Schalter | im lost | 08:13 |
| lynxman | morning | 08:18 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: Setting up tftp is always a bit of a pain, does it generate any logs? | 08:19 |
| Totem-Schalter | i think so .. i need to look where it puts them | 08:19 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: that's where I would start, since it won't give you any other clue | 08:19 |
| Totem-Schalter | there really is not any good documentation on it either "tftpd-hpa | 08:21 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: unfortunately | 08:21 |
| Totem-Schalter | yeah no logs .. but i need to check my initd logs .. where is that | 08:25 |
| Totem-Schalter | to check if port 69 is binding | 08:26 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: Are you using xinetd or just starting directly? | 08:26 |
| Totem-Schalter | command "service tftpd-hpa start " works | 08:27 |
| lynxman | so starting directly | 08:27 |
| Totem-Schalter | ok | 08:27 |
| lynxman | check the PID of tftpd then do lsof -p PIDNUM as root | 08:27 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: that'll show you all the resources the process is using including ports its listening to | 08:29 |
| lynxman | Totem-Schalter: also another way is to do "netstat -an" | 08:29 |
| Totem-Schalter | netsat -an i found udp 0.0.0.0:69 | 08:30 |

| Totem-Schalter | yeah .. it hased to be a setting in my config file | 08:32 |
| Totem-Schalter | what can i do with the "ps" command to keep it from scrolling off the screen ? | 08:35 |
| lynxman | ps | less | 08:36 |

| shadowpit | Hello, I've got a problem with my Ubuntu Server 11.04 amd64, can I request for help here or is there a better place to that ? | 08:37 |
| shadowpit | -to +for | 08:37 |
| irly | shoot | 08:38 |
| irly | if someone knowledgeable knows the answer, you probably get one | 08:38 |
| shadowpit | ok, thanks. | 08:38 |
| shadowpit | Here is my problem : I updated my server and I now have Linux 2.6.38-10-server (in addition to 2.6.38-8) and, when I try to boot on version "10", I think I have a KP because the screen keeps black and there is no use of the HDD (I can ear it working with version "8"). I'm using GRUB 2. I don't understand what is the problem. | 08:42 |
| Totem-Schalter | lynxman: hey i finnaly checked with "lsof -p" and i see that it has my file i made "/tftp" listed as type "cwd" is it safe to say that i have set my dir up ok ? | 08:45 |
| shadowpit | Sorry, I disconnected. ^^' | 08:45 |
| shadowpit | Is there anyone that can help me with that ? | 08:46 |
| Totem-Schalter | lynxman: sorry not type but FD cwd | 08:46 |
| shadowpit | I also looked at /boot/grub/grub.cfg and I didn't saw any diference between the lines for v10 and those for v8 (except for "8">"10" of course). | 08:49 |
| irly | shadowpit: have you tried booting into recovery mode? | 08:50 |
| shadowpit | No | 08:50 |
| shadowpit | OK, I just have tried with this result : | 08:52 |
| shadowpit | Loading of Linux 2.6.38-10-server... | 08:53 |
| shadowpit | Loading of ramdisk... | 08:53 |
| shadowpit | > No use of the HDD (I don't ear it), and it's "frozen", can't do anyting but reboot it by ACPI (nothing happend when hitting "Num Lock") | 08:55 |

| shadowpit | Another question : can we have no submenus in Grub2 ? | 09:06 |
| shadowpit | My "v8" kernel is in a submenu of Grub, if I add GRUB_DEFAULT="Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.38-8-server" in /etc/default/grub, this will work ? | 09:09 |
| irly | shadowpit: sorry, I have no idea what the problem is. feel free to ask again some time later or in a different channel. #linux #grub might help. | 09:09 |
| irly | or just wait here :) | 09:09 |
| shadowpit | ok, thank, I will ask on #grub | 09:09 |
| shadowpit | I can wait here, but I'll have to explain my problem again and again, and I don't want to flood. ;-) | 09:11 |

| disposable | 2 of my (lucid) servers have their clocks screwed - one is 20 mins in future, the other 7 mins in the past. I'm trying to slowly adjust the time to correct values without crashing postfix/dovecot/mysql/etc running on them. i've changed ntpd's start parameters to '-g -x' in /etc/default/ntp. how do i check if it's slewing the time now? /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift has 0.000 in it. | 14:25 |
| patdk-wk | I believe that is logged | 14:27 |
| patdk-wk | but really, postfix/mysql won't care | 14:27 |
| patdk-wk | dovecot will complain, but get over it | 14:27 |
| patdk-wk | but your apps running on mysql, dunno | 14:28 |
| disposable | this is what confuses me in the log "ntpd[17683]: frequency initialized 0.000 PPM from /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift | 14:29 |

| Ramosa | what is the main difference with debian and ubuntu server? usability? | 16:43 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Ramosa: framework and default packages | 16:43 |
| Ramosa | and by framework you mean? | 16:44 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Ramosa: the Ubuntu repos are more up to date, but sacrifice slight stability (in most cases) for features. Debian sacrifices features for stability in the same manner. | 16:44 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Ramosa: Debian doesn't update their repos as often as Ubuntu does. | 16:44 |
| Ramosa | right | 16:44 |
| Ramosa | so Ubuntu makes more choices for me | 16:44 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | well... | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | not really... | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Debian doesn't come with a default server install image | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | but Ubuntu Server does. | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | in pure fundamental terms | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | the difference is in repo updates. | 16:46 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | but they're basically the same software | 16:46 |
| Ramosa | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9a/Gldt1009.svg | 16:46 |
| Ramosa | I wish there was a site where you can get an overview of the differences between all those distros | 16:47 |
| Ramosa | just the main topics | 16:47 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | remind me to slap people who post huge images like that | 16:47 |

| Ramosa | im gonna do node.js, so i don't need LAMP | 16:50 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | by default you get to CHOOSE what gets installed with Ubuntu Server | 16:52 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | it doesnt automatically install everything | 16:52 |
| Ramosa | is LAMP included in the default server install image though? | 16:52 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | included, yes. installed by default, no. | 16:55 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | meaning you have the OPTION to install LAMP | 16:56 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | but it doesnt automagically install | 16:56 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | during the process it asks what you want installed | 16:56 |

| philsf | I want to install using LVM, but the Lucid CD I burned only seems to allow me to boot into graphical mode, which doesn't support it. How can I use debian-installer from the CD? there is no "install" or "expert" kernels in the boot options | 17:09 |
| ppetraki | philsf, I don't believe thats an option with the "desktop" iso, you'll have to use the server or alternative image | 17:20 |
| philsf | ppetraki, I'm using the server image | 17:20 |
| philsf | ppetraki, debian-installer boots if I create a USB boot image, but the installation fails, so I'm trying a CD | 17:20 |
| ppetraki | philsf, so you have a text only install interface? | 17:20 |
| philsf | ppetraki, no, I have a GUI only install interface | 17:21 |
| ppetraki | philsf, thats not it then | 17:21 |
| ppetraki | philsf, unless they've changed it | 17:21 |
| ppetraki | philsf, I know for certain that the text mode in the alternative iso offers it, I've used it | 17:21 |
| * philsf must have mixed up images then | 17:23 | |
| ppetraki | philsf, http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ | 17:24 |
| * philsf must have mixed up images then | 17:25 | |
| ppetraki | philsf, note that the "server" iso doesn't explicitly mention LVM, while the alternative one does | 17:25 |
| ppetraki | philsf, a bit confusing. | 17:25 |
| philsf | yup, I burned the wrong image. burned a 11.04 desktop that was lying around :/ | 17:26 |
| * ppetraki is downloading to confirm suspicions | 17:26 | |
| philsf | ppetraki, but the server image does allow LVM, right? | 17:26 |
| philsf | the alternate is a catch all, for both desktop or server install, right? | 17:26 |
| ppetraki | philsf, I think that's right | 17:27 |
| ppetraki | philsf, I PXE install so often I don't remember how they're distinguished :-) | 17:27 |
| ppetraki | philsf, verified, the server iso supports LVM | 17:31 |

| sw0rdfish | the hard way... | 23:14 |
| sw0rdfish | lol :) | 23:14 |
| patdk-lap | maybe if you copy it now, and attempt rsync this time | 23:14 |
| patdk-lap | and tell rsync to keep partial files | 23:14 |
| sw0rdfish | hey I just looked now, and its continuing | 23:14 |
| sw0rdfish | haha | 23:14 |
| sw0rdfish | maybe it heard you telling me ctrl+c | 23:14 |
| sw0rdfish | and it got scared :P | 23:15 |
| patdk-lap | uploading? | 23:15 |
| patdk-lap | or, is it coming from a dsl/cable location? | 23:15 |
| sw0rdfish | downloading | 23:19 |
| kees | hallyn: ah, right. :) | 23:22 |
| hallyn | ok, someone set me straight. The default kernel in ubuntu server is 2.6.32 still right? | 23:26 |
| hallyn | in lucid i mean | 23:26 |
| patdk-lap | yep | 23:26 |
| hallyn | phew thanks | 23:27 |
| patdk-lap | now you can install a backported maverick or natty kernel though | 23:27 |
| hallyn | yeah, but I don't think we can support that in X-dkms packages | 23:29 |

| adam_g | hallyn: that reminds me, how is the case handled where someone is using a dkms module built for lucid kernel, but they've backported a newer kernel and upgrades/rebuilds of those dkms packages begin to break. | 23:38 |
| adam_g | is that just an unsupported practice and an invalid bug? | 23:39 |
| hallyn | adam_g: that's what I'm advocating right now :) | 23:39 |
| hallyn | adam_g: people are free to offer backported versions of the dkms package to go along with the kernel, | 23:39 |
| hallyn | but i was looking at open-vm-tools in particular, which is in multiverse | 23:39 |
| adam_g | bug #799630 is an interesting example | 23:40 |
| uvirtbot` | Launchpad bug 799630 in drbd8 "package drbd8-source 2:8.3.7-1ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: drbd8 kernel module failed to build" [Low,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/799630 | 23:40 |
| hallyn | adam_g: might be worth asking on #ubuntu-kernel what they think. | 23:40 |
| hallyn | for packages in main, i think it coudl be fair to say if we offer backporte dkernel, then we'll offer backported dkms packages | 23:40 |
| adam_g | drbd was merged into mainline in 2.6.33, so the out-of-tree dkms module wont build on anything after the lucid kernel | 23:40 |
| hallyn | for universe, heck no | 23:40 |
| hallyn | is drbd in main? | 23:41 |
| hallyn | (i assume so) | 23:41 |
| adam_g | in lucid, im not sure | 23:41 |

| hallyn | (sorry, those 'new bug' reports are my fault :) | 23:42 |
| hallyn | gotta run and get some grub, bbl | 23:42 |
| adam_g | cya | 23:42 |
| hallyn | adam_g: are you going to ask in #ubuntu-kernel? | 23:42 |
| hallyn | anyway, yeah, cya :) | 23:42 |
| adam_g | hallyn: i will. not sure if today or tomorrow | 23:42 |
